In this case a '=' seems the correct choice.

There is another issue with this patch. During AB testing we have this
new warning:

WARNING: u-boot-1_2022.07-r0 do_configure: QA Issue: u-boot: invalid PACKAGECONFIG: openssl [invalid-packageconfig]

I don't know which layer has the u-boot-1 recipe, but by grepping I
noticed the 'openssl' PACKAGECONFIG appears in oe-core elsewhere, and
it should be removed from there too.
